A 42-year-old woman died on Saturday morning after falling from a balcony in a house on Juan de Robles street, in the Teatinos neighborhood. The incident occurred around 18:45. A man who was present at the scene was arrested in connection with the events. The National Police quickly indicated that the case is not being treated as a gender-violence incident at this stage of the investigation.
In Malaga, authorities provided further context as the case moved into the investigative phase. The homicide unit of the Malaga Provincial Police Station, working with reporters from the Prensa Ibérica group, took charge of examining the circumstances surrounding the death of the South American woman. The arrested individual is described as Bulgarian by initial records, and officials are compiling details to understand how the events unfolded.
Emergency responders from 112 confirmed that the woman, who had fallen from height, was deceased. The incident occurred on the sixth floor of the building at number 67 on Teatinos street. Several units of both the National Police and Local Police, along with emergency services, responded to the scene. They could only confirm the woman’s death at that time.
The National Police described that the woman had reached out to a friend to discuss “circumstances under investigation.” Reports indicate she felt fear related to the individual who was later arrested, and she fell from the balcony of the building, resulting in her death.
There was no established relationship between the individuals involved at the outset of the investigation, according to the initial statements from officials. The case remains under review as investigators gather additional statements and forensic evidence to determine the sequence of events and any contributing factors.
Authorities continue to assess all available information, including surveillance footage, witness accounts, and material forensics, to build a comprehensive understanding of the incident. The investigation is being conducted with the aim of clarifying the timeline and identifying any underlying issues that may have influenced the outcomes of this tragedy. Caution is advised as more findings are expected to emerge from ongoing inquiries and formal inquiries into the circumstances surrounding the fall and the surrounding actions of the individuals involved. The authorities liaise with the victims’ families to provide updates as permissible under legal processes. .
